Gaming Buzz: World of Warcraft Changes

World of Warcraft just got hit hard with new changes this week.

Blizzard just released patch 4.0.3a onto the game World of Warcraft this week. Everything in the game changed. Some of the changes are:

What’s in The Shattering
  • Hearthstone set to Dalaran? Better change that — Dalaran and Shattrath portals will be removed once the patch hits.
  • In place of the handy portals in Dalaran, you’ll find a series of equally handy class trainers.
  • The new race/class combinations will be playable, with the exception of goblins and worgen.
  • If you’re wondering why we spent all that time taking back Echo Isles and Gnomeregan, you’ll be able to see the fruits of your labors in 4.0.3a, where both the trolls and the gnomes have their brand new starting zones.
  • Speaking of zone changes, all level 1 to 60 zones will be forever changed, and as a result, all zones will have fully playable content.
  • Fancy new Cataclysm loading screens will be available for all new zones. Be sure to check out the new Northrend loading screen, while you’re at it.
  • Did you like the new Cataclysm cinematic? Good, because it’ll be viewable as of Patch 4.0.3.
  • How long have you had your in-game music muted? Now would be a good time to crank it up again, as the new Cataclysm music for all new zones will be implemented.
  • The new Cataclysm login screen featuring Deathwing in all his glory above a fiery version of Stormwind will also be available.
  • Just in case you haven’t gotten exalted with all your home factions, City Quartermasters will be available, along with reputation tabards for each faction.
  • A host of bug fixes will be included with this patch.
  • New class balancing mechanics and fixes will be included, as well.
  • Speaking of classes, if you are a druid, priest, paladin, or shaman, your talent trees will be reset.
  • The amount of experience required to gain levels from 71 through 80 will be reduced by 20 percent. Now’s a good time to get the rest of those alts to 80!
  • New tamable hunter pets, including monkeys, foxes, dogs, and beetles, will be included, as well as new skins for existing pet classes. – WoW

Gaming Buzz July 12, 2009: Bungie Day

humpworld

Yes this did. They kicked are ass!

Bungie Day:

Bungie Day was a good one this year. They released the first screenshots of the new maps coming out with Halo 3 ODST September 8, 2009. Also they added a playlist just for Bungie Day, called “Bungie vs. World”. Who every got lucky and got matched with them, if you win agansit the  Bungie 4 team you would get Recon armor. Look further into the post to see those new screenshots of the new Halo 3 maps.

inline_H3ODST_Heretic_env-01

Hey I know this map! Oh yea… its Midship from Halo 2. “Heretic returns players to familiar ground as the Halo 2 arena “Midship” makes its long-rumored debut in Halo 3. The stark interior of the Pious Inquisitor might appear austere on first glance, but Heretic’s symmetrical spaces require players to execute complex strategies in order to outplay their opponents”.

Citadel

 

inline_H3ODST_Citadel_env-01

Hey that looks like one of the campign missions I played in Halo 3. Cool! “Citadel may be a long abandoned Forerunner stronghold, but its small, symmetrical confines are far from secure. Two opposing bases offer little safety for players looking for solace. Instead, Citadel forces small squads to stay in constant communication, keep their heads on a swivel, and be prepared to adjust combat tactics in close quarters“.

Longshore

 

inline_H3ODST_Longshore_env-01

“This may be my new favorte map.” “Longshore lacks the commercial ships that once made it a lucrative port for Old Mombasa, but it still bustles with activity. Designed for large scale combat and well suited for smaller affairs, Longshore’s multitude of industrial buildings, elevated walks, and open inlets conspire to create a complex battleground tailored for multiple combat scenarios”.

Poll Question:

The poll will end on Friday July 17, 2009. We will show resluts and start a new poll.

I’m out:

This post in the future will be packed in with many games updates or new games coming out. This one was so short cause of this being our first post, and I have stuff to do today (like playing Halo 3 and Gears Of War 2).

360Wars Back In Action

Hi there I’m the founder of 360Wars.tk. I’m very happy to announce that 360Wars is back in action. This is what happened.

The Story of 360Wars: The Bad Turn

One day when I was thinking bigger and better for 360wars, I thought “hey lets move 360Wars to a better site host” so I did. That day 360Wars was remade to 360Wars  Gaming and moved to 360warsgaming.tk. Everything was going good until we got less and less views each day, so we stop posting and officially closed down 360Wars Gaming and 360Wars. Look at today we officially came back and is going to run 360Wars for awhile. 360Wars was the most best sources for Xbox 360 news and information. Once again we can provide that and give you guys the best information.

Yours Truly,

Founder of 360Wars
